Scottish civil engineering and groundworks specialist Advance Construction Group is understood to be in final talks to buy a minority stake in piling specialist Northern Piling Ltd.
Bellshill-based Advance Construction is one of Scotland’s largest civils and groundworks firms employing around 2,000 staff and turning over around £300m.
It is understood to be aiming to buy a 25% stake in the driven concrete piling specialist NPL, which has a turnover of around £10m employing up to 35 staff from its nearby base also in the Bellshill area to the south east of Glasgow.
A deal would create a strong alliance between the two firms with Advance able to offer clients full ground modelling with design and precast piles and beams capability.
